With this course I want to show you some of Maya`s often overlooked tools which if embraced, can help dramatically speed up your workflow.
We will begin by utilizing its dynamics systems to automate the animation of key areas, like the snakes on Medussa`s head, while also adding the ability to override the snakes motion, allowing an animator to also pose and hand animate them too.
Once the dynamics are in place we will look at MEL, Maya`s powerful scripting language, to help create and apply a basic rig to tie all the controls together.
